HTC Evo Design Sprint RB, Factory Refurbished
Factory refurbished HTC Evo Design 4G for Sprint, listed as the RB SKU. The aluminum-body EVO Design suits collectors filling out the EVO series and exporters who will unlock its GSM roaming radio for 3G markets abroad, and refurbished grading keeps cosmetics consistent across a lot. The phone has no US cellular service today.
The HTC EVO Design 4G is Sprint's October 2011 mid-range EVO: a 4-inch 540 x 960 qHD display, a 1.2 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon, 768 MB of RAM, a 5 MP camera with 720p video, a 1.3 MP front camera, HTC Sense 3.0 on Android 2.3, and a world radio with CDMA EV-DO and Sprint WiMAX plus GSM/UMTS for international roaming, in an aluminum unibody.
TG Wireless sells the EVO Design to collectors of the EVO line, to exporters who can use the GSM side in live 3G markets once unlocked, and to prop, display, and parts buyers.

Condition: Factory Refurbished
Factory refurbished units have been reconditioned to close-to-new working order. They are not brand new and may show light signs of handling. TG tests and grades each unit before it ships. Tell your account manager whether you need units with the original box and accessories or handset-only packs; the mix varies by lot.
Network and compatibility
The EVO Design 4G is a CDMA and WiMAX phone with a GSM/UMTS roaming radio and no LTE. Sprint shut down WiMAX in 2015 and CDMA on March 31, 2022, and all US carriers retired 3G, so it has no US service. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Once SIM-unlocked, the GSM side can work abroad where UMTS or GSM remains live, alongside collector, prop, Wi-Fi, and parts uses.
Resale fit
- Collectors of Sprint EVO-line hardware.
- Export to GSM/UMTS markets using the world-roaming radio, once unlocked.
- Film and TV props, Wi-Fi-only use, and parts.
